Serious is Fun

"Why are you so serious about everything Dad? My friend’s Pop
is so cool. Whatever happens around, it doesn't affect him", Rahul was talking
to his father who had come home from office.

His father replied, "Often read as bore, the word serious
is misinterpreted."

"The word stands for someone thoughtful or careful in
approach. It means, whatever the person is doing matters to him. When
something doesn't matter it is better to not attempt it.When one works thoughtfully, there are rarely any situations
which go wrong, which means no cover up jobs. Look around and tell me how many people do things that
matter to them?

"Situations would be quite different if we have more people
like this. Tell me, would you pair up with someone to do things which don’t
matter to him?
